Battleborn Goes Free To Play

Battleborn, the MOBA Shooter game, has officially announced its free trial, and it seems awfully close to a free full game. The free version of Battleborn will give players access to six of the game’s 30 characters, rotated on a weekly basis. Character and player account progression is permanent, so when a character rotates out and then return, any progress you’ve made with it will still be there, and content including heroes, skins, boosters, and Story Mode Operations will be unlockable individually in the Marketplace, with either in-game credits or Platinum premium currency.

Players who purchase individual pieces of content and then upgrade to the full game will be given in-game credits to compensate for duplicated items, and anyone who already owns the game will be upgraded to “Founder” status, which will include Legendary Gear, 1000 Platinum, 50,000 Credits, loot packs, a “Founder’s Crown” flair item, and other bonuses…
